Evil spam-generating-beings

Redkernel Softwares (no link for you, you lame bastards) has been spamming my referrer logs.. that's bad enough.. but they also fake google searches to show up in my site stats with a link. Slimey.. lame.. and now in my hosts.deny file.. I really need to script this.. I'm sure a lot more people will pick up on spamming this way.

10 hits today.

Thanks for the details about the problem. I found the same thing in my referrer logs just now so I searched google for "redkernel." That is how I found your site. I was puzzled, but now I see. They *are* lame bastards. They suck.
